Given below is a sample of a portion of DNA strand giving the base sequence on the opposite strands. What is so special shown in it

A

Start codon at the 5' end

B

Palindromic sequence of base pairs

C

Replication completed

D

Deletion mutation

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

it is palindrome sequence (sequence reads the same on two strands).
`5'-GAATTC-3'`
`3'-CTTAAG-5'`
The palindrome in DNA is a sequence of base pairs that reads same on the two strands when orientation of reading is kept the same.
